I want to buy a landrover as a project and do it up.
BUT
Which is best to buy and keeps its value? Defender 5 door??

Any advise help would be appreciated. Cheers

None, they are money pits.
If you get an old banger and pay little for it then it will probably be worth the same in years to come but you will have to look after it.
Defenders seem to fetch big money, as do the series but whether they continue to appreciate or not is really down to demand for them.
I may be biased but best cheap buy, relatively simple fixup (if the chassis is good) and a great 4x4 is the D2 but it helps if you have a mind for mechanics and know all the bits that need checking and sorting. You can spend as much or as little as you like and will need a Nanocom as well.

So the D2 is easy to work on? Everything unbolts.
 
Can you weld, or know a good welder? are you prepared to fix the chassis if needed?
Be ready to get a diagnostics unit, as you may well require the use of one.

Yes I weld and have a welder, i have been doing up mini's getting bored of them and am looking for a new challenge
